Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
To assess the validity of the patient enablement instrument in relation to self-efficacy and empowerment; To investigate if patient enablement can be effective in identifying which patients would benefit the most from patient education; To study if patient enablement has any relation to self-efficacy, function or self-rated health; To analyze if patient enablement has a causal effect on health care consumption; To evaluate whether patient education is a cost-effective intervention. The project is a longitudinal study, including patients from a patient education programme for osteoarthritis in primary health care. Data consist of patient reported outcome measures and health care consumption. Cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis will be used. Inclusion of patients will start August 2016. Analyses of data and manuscript writing will be performed in 2018-2019. Researchers included are from primary health care settings and researchers in the field of OA, patient education and health economy. Our increasingly older and more inactive population will raise huge demands on the health care. The importance of optimizing treatments that are available in primary health care cannot be underestimated. The project will contribute with important knowledge about the patient's own process of getting well.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Patient education for osteoarthritis
The intervention in the education program consists of three group lessons of about 90 minutes each where information about ethiology, risk factors, treatment and coping strategies concerning OA is included. The first two lessons are held by a physiotherapist and the third by a so-called expert patient that is a person with OA who shares his or her experiences of how to live with the disease. After the intervention patients are able to choose if they want to exercise at home or in a group, supervised by a physiotherapist.
